Song by Bachman-Turner Overdrive<br /><br>
You get up every morning<br>
From your alarm clock's warning<br>
Take the 8:15 into the city<br>
There's a whistle up above<br>
And people pushin', people shovin'<br>
And the girls who try to look pretty<br>
<br>
And if your train's on time<br>
You can get to work by nine<br>
And start your slaving job to get your pay<br>
If you ever get annoyed<br>
Look at me I'm self-employed<br>
I love to work at nothing all day<br>
<br>
And I'll be...<br>
[Refrain]<br>
Taking care of business every day<br>
Taking care of business every way<br>
I've been taking care of business, it's all mine<br>
Taking care of business and working overtime<br>
Work out!<br>
<br>
If it were easy as fishin'<br>
You could be a musician<br>
If you could make sounds loud or mellow<br>
Get a second-hand guitar<br>
Chances are you'll go far<br>
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows<br>
<br>
People see you having fun<br>
Just a-lying in the sun<br>
Tell them that you like it this way<br>
It's the work that we avoid<br>
And we're all self-employed<br>
We love to work at nothing all day<br>
<br>
And we be...<br>
[Refrain]<br>
<br>
[Spoken] Take good care of my business<br>
When I'm away, every day whoo!<br>
<br>
[Repeat first 2 verses]<br>
<br>
[Refrain]<br>
<br>
Takin' care of business [4x]<br>
<br>
[Refrain]<br>
<br>
Takin' care of business [repeat, fade]<br>
 <br>
